The 2018 session of the European School On Nanosciences & Nanotechnologies (ESONN) takes place from August 26 to September 15 in Grenoble. Applications are open until May 18, 2018. Since 2004, ESONN has been a three-week course aiming at providing training for graduate students, postdoctoral and junior scientists from universities and laboratories, all around the […]

On May 4, we have the pleasure to welcome Emilie Jué former SPINTEC PHD, she is now postdoc at NIST Colorado, she will give us a seminar which will take place at SPINTEC 434A at 11:00. Injection locking and spin transfer torque efficiency in three-terminal spin-torque oscillators Beyond their nanoscale size and their tunability in […]

The recent discovery of nanometer-size whirling magnetic structures named magnetic skyrmions has opened a new path to manipulate magnetization at the nanoscale [1,2]. Magnetic skyrmions are characterized by a chiral and topologically non-trivial spin structure, i.e their magnetization texture cannot be continuously transformed into the uniform magnetic state without causing a singularity (see Fig.1). Skyrmions […]

Bernard Dieny (from Spintec) and Cheol Seong Hwang are Guest Editors for a topical issue of the MRS Bulletin in May 2018, dedicated to Advanced memory—Materials for a new era of information technology. Material development has played a crucial role in modern civilization and information technology (IT). The importance of high-density and high-performance memory in […]

A team at SPINTEC in Grenoble has demonstrated thermally stable and electrically switchable Spin Transfer Torque MRAM (STT-MRAM) of diameter down to 4nm. Among the various technologies of non-volatile memories, STT-MRAM gathers a unique combination of assets: non-volatility, write speed (3-30ns), density (4Gbit demonstrated by Hynix/Toshiba), low consumption (a few tens of fJ/write), and very […]
